Guitar Lessons – Austin, TX
Why Take Guitar Lessons at Farr Guitar Studio in Austin?
At Farr Guitar Studio, every student gets the chance to learn to play the music they are passionate about. Farr Guitar Studio offers expert teaching and individualized lessons for all ages – this produces quick results so each student feels a sense of pride and accomplishment. I’m so confident that you’ll love our guitar lessons that the first lesson is FREE of charge! I want to help each student get the time they need and deserve to develop their skills, so there are guaranteed opportunities to reschedule missed lessons–and Skype lessons for those who can’t make it into the studio. Another thing that sets us apart: special discounts and scholarships for students with financial need, and no contracts to sign or setup fees to pay.
No matter what style of music you want to learn to play on guitar, you can learn it here. Each student learns the techniques they need and want to learn, and the guitar chords and guitar scales often used in the music styles they prefer. By mixing these teachings in with lessons on how to read tablature (also known as tabs) and how to read sheet music, students will be able to move on to playing fantastic cover songs, writing their own music, and playing beautiful-sounding improvisation.
Another aspect that sets Farr Guitar Studio apart from the rest is the Four Pillar philosophy, which guides the curriculum: Genre, Theory, Creativity, and Performance. Genre is what initially engages the student and eventually provides increased understanding of other cultures and time periods. The students will learn music from their preferred genre and gradually branch out into different styles of music. Theory is the language of the musician. It allows students to understand, speak, read, and write the musical language. With a concrete theoretical foundation, students become musically literate and poetic. Creativity is largely expressed through improvisation and composition. After students play repertoire in a specific genre and learn the appropriate theoretical concepts, they will have the opportunity to create original music inspired by their education. Performance is the moment that the music is shared with an audience. Students will be taught how to play expressively and with conviction when performing. Regular performances develop a sense of courage and self-trust in the student. The four pillars of the Farr Guitar Studio Curriculum ensure that each student receives a thorough education.
